T🐭he FIA has confirmed that an additional race in Europe is to be added to the 2013 F1 calendar in a move which will see the title ba⛎ttle fought over 20 races.

The initial schedule published by the governingꦦ body back in September had featured 20 dates be♐fore the planned race in New Jersey was put back to 2014 at the earliest.

That looked set to leave 19 races on the calendar, but the F🐈IA ha▨s now revised the schedule for 2013 at the latest meeting of the World Motor Sport Council.

The revised schedule has seen the German Grand Prix moved forwards to 7 July - a week earlier thꦡan originally planned - in order to allow another race in European to be run on 21 July, a week before the Hungarian Grand Prix in Budapest.

"The date for the 2013 Grand Prix of Germany has been moved to 7 July," the governing body said, "and 21 July has been reserved for another F1 European eve🎉nt, subject to the approval of the relevant AS💯Ns."

Where that race will be held remains to be seen, although Turkey is the hot favourite to take th🌱e vacant spot on the calendar.

Earlier this week, businessman Vural Ak said he was talking ♚to Bernie Ecclestone about a return for the race having taken over the lease of the Istanbul Park circuit, with a decision expected from the♌ commercial rights holder 'next week'.
